When it comes to getting the most out of conferences, a little organization can go a long way! This note catcher from @LearningForward can help: buff.ly/4iAyTYN #AlwaysLearning
Graphic organizer titled "Session Note Catcher." On the left, in brightly colored boxes, are prompts: "What are the BIG ideas you captured from this session," etc. On the right is room for notes.

As a former National Teacher of the Year, I’ve seen how federal protections in education are more than policies—they’re lifelines. 
Eliminating the USDOE risks dismantling decades of progress.

NEW Nearly half of the 1.4 million people in the U.S. immigration system with final deportation orders cannot be sent back to their home countries, according to internal ICE data. It’s one of several obstacles Trump’s mass removal plan will face www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Some would-be deportees’s home countries won’t take them or limit cooperation with ICE. Others have received reprieves or deferrals from immigration judges.

What Does Equity Really Mean for Multilingual Learners?
Scaffolding up the curriculum, rather than watering it down, is key for English learners.

A deeply interesting article on a growing instructional practice for early math learners👇 But I'm always surprised to learn about popular classroom methods & then read "The empirical evidence...is thin" It's a reminder that research-practice "gaps" in education are actually yawning chasms. #EduSky
